Understanding file permissions
This string of letters, drwxrwxrwx, represents the permissions that are set for the directory.
Each number can have one of eight values ranging from 0 to 7. Each value corresponds to a certain setting of the read, write and execute permissions, as explained in the following table.
For Example:
- 777 is the same as rwxrwxrwx
- 755 is the same as rwxr-xr-x
- 666 is the same as rw-rw-rw-
- 744 is the same as rwxr--r--
